ROME. Feb. 23—<UP>—Premier Benito Mussolini plans to add at least 1,500 new war planes to Italy’s air fleet before the end of the year, aviation experts said tonight.
Most of the planes will be highspeed bombers.
These machines, added to some built last year and to those already In service, will bring Italy’s military air force to around 5,500 planes by next December, it was estimated.
Speed Predicted Many of the new ships will be the new •‘81” type bombers, which. Italian pilots say, can attain speeds between 217 and 248 miles an hour carrying three tons of bombs. Their cruising radius is aocut 1,860 miles.
Some of these bombers are in service in Eritrea and if Mussolini gave the order, they could take off either at Massawa or Asmara and easily bomb Addis Ababa. Some military observers believe this will be done before the rainy season starts, if the Italian high command thinks demoralization of the Ethiopian capital will hasten defeat of the Ethiopian forces without doing much damage to the European political situation.
Long Hours Kept According to air experts, Italy’s airplane factories, scattered in all parts of the country, are working day and night manufacturing new planes at *tne rate of about five a day. As fast as they are completed they are placed in home service, replacing older machines which are sent to Africa.
It was estimated that Italy, before the present building program, possessed some 3 000 planes, of which 900 are new and modern, 1.600 fairly new and serviceable and the rest, antiquated and useful only for transport and training. When this year's building program is completed, it was estimated that Italy will have at least 3.000 new first line planes.
Because Ethiopia possesses no aviation worthy of note and because of the uneasy European situation, Italy is keeping most of her best planes in readiness at home. Only about 400 are in Africa, divided about evenly between the Eritrean and Somaliland fronts.

U.C.LA. Leader To Open Forum
Tom Lambert To Deliver First of Talk Series On Youth Future
Discussing “The World as We Want It” Thomas Lambert, student body president of U. C. L. A. will open a new series of Religion forums. “Whither Youth” in Mudd Memorial hall today.
The U. C. L. A. student leader will be introduced by Eames Bishop, A. S. U. S. C. president, who said.
The inquiry was made by the*-ji
contracts division of the government. Officials feel that it represents an accurate cross-section of the attitude industry generaUy holds toward the New Deals recovery program. They probably will send the report to President Roosevelt.
Meantime, tucked ln the private fUes of secretary of commerce Daniel C. Roper, is a very hush-hush report on details of how the nation's great basic industries reacted to the passing of NRA. fhis investigation was made at the request of President Roosevelt soon after the supreme court’s decision.
A special committee worked for weeks with a large force of NRA field workers checking conditions in thousands of plants. Roper has had the committee’s report for more than a month but has refused to make it public despite pressure from some New Dealers and powerful Tabor organizations.
A movement is afoot to force him to surrender lt to one of the congressional labor committees.

California Floods, Storms Subside During Week-end
By United Press. . t ,
Flood and storm conditions which caused at least 10 deaths and spread costly damage throughout fertile valleys in California appeared finally broken Sunday night, following a week-long siege. February precipitation records throughout the state had been smashed. In the Sierra Nevadas, Siski-
¥yous and high mountains snow was packed to tremendous depths.
Song Menaces Lives of Hungarians _ «
BUDAPEST, Feb. 23— (UP)— Eighteen suicides attributed to one song convinced Budapjct police tonight that the tune menaces the welfare of Hungary and must be suppressed.
A decision was reached when police received a letter from the 18th suicide, Joseph Keller, A shoemaker, asking them to put on his grave the 100 roses mentioned ln the song, “Gloomy Sunday.” The words are by Ladislaus Javor and the music by Rudolf Seress.
A blizzard that packed more than 18 inches of snow on highways in the Lake Tahoe ind Donner Summit area marooned approximately 750 persons attending the California Ski association tournament at Truckee. Highway crews battled vainly to open the choked highways.
In the central portion light, intermittent showers marked passing of the disturbance. The total precipitation in the Fresno area for the month reached 4.63 inches, contrasted with the former record of 4.59 inches established in 1902.
Roaring cataracts burst down normally dry foothiU creek beds. A bridge on the Clovis-Auberry road was destroyed by floods. Nearly 400 acres of land surrounding the Garfield school at Clovis were inundated, and dry creek overflowed its banks, sending water over hundreds of acres of farm land.
